WELCOME TO THE SETDA
Spring Fling & Whitetail Deer Auction & Expo
The Southeast Trophy Deer Association Board of Directors is happy to welcome one and all to our annual 2025 Spring Fling Auction and Fundraiser.
The two-day event provides an opportunity to meet, ask questions of, and learn from others in the industry from across the country. The free educational seminars available, provide vital information on how to become better stewards for our animals. What once was but a dream of producing big racked bucks in Florida is now a reality. Check out the many mounts on display and those antlers being entered into competition and you will see that Florida is producing monster bucks.
The entire Board wants to thank our sponsors, vendors, lecturers, and all those who placed ads, consignments, and donations into the event. Most importantly, we want to thank you, our guests, for attending this event in person or online. Friday’s dinner and Saturday’s lunch Is free. We hope that we encourage you to become members of SETDA.
This year, we will be awarding two Scholarship awards and will be offering NEW Florida Deer Farmers an opportunity to WIN A FREE DEER!
On our website, you can join SETDA, book your room at a big discount (while they last), as well as buy raffle tickets for Friday’s and Saturday’s raffle. Remember, you can’t win if you don’t play........... so buy your raffle tickets!
